Had a bit of a late start, but Ive got a simple app so far, built on top of openframeworks in c++, so far all it does is load a level from a bitmap, and create it with some simple tile textures, the next step is making a dynamic lighting engine, ambitious but i think its possible

screenshot of progress so far

I unfortunately didnt get as much time as I wanted on this, and cant do anymore today for the jam :c

But I achieved the main bit of what I wanted to do for this which was a little 2d raytracing Light/Shadow system for the little astronaut explorer, Im hoping to continue on this and add some better controls and collision and a bit of narrative as the story’s not exactly clear [non-existant].

In short it was loads of fun and I’m definitly gonna do a full jam next time, live with web stream 😀

Now on to the ratings 😀

Gonna be entering the ludum Jam with at least one other person maybe a bit of help from two other guys.

Im routing for creation and destruction or ancient ruins.

Hopefully we’ll be doing screen and camera time lapses
